The Highlight Reel

Friday, March 16, 2018


I got to sub for the principals on Thursday.  While I miss being in the classroom with the kids, I so enjoy getting to see the school as a whole.  I also loved that I got to see their smiling faces at lunch.  They were so surprised to see me in there.  

Kindergarten's service learning project is to help kindergarten classes at Kohfelt elementary.  Our penny drive is coming to a close.  We counted our pennies and loose change again.  When we counted a few weeks ago we had raised $90.  As of today we have collected $200.  We have ONE WEEK LEFT to collect change and our goal is $500! 
With $200 we have enough to cover the cost of the clipboards we need to purchase and decorate but we are not sure if we have enough to cover the shipping cost.  
We would also like to send each teacher an Amazon gift card to purchase activities for their literacy centers.  Clipboards and center activities were lost things and needed in the hurricane.  
Thank you SO MUCH to those who have donated!  We appreciate donations of all sizes.  You can send pennies, change, bills or checks payable to CPS.  
ONE WEEK TO GO!  WE CAN DO IT!
